February 18, 2013

The Flames wrap up their mini two game road trip tonight as they head into Phoenix to face the Coyotes for their second game in consecutive nights. The Flames are coming off a gutsy, come from behind victory against the Dallas Stars yesterday, while the Coyotes beat the Columbus Blues Jackets 5-3 on Saturday night.

The Flames get ready to play their 8th home game of the season as the St. Louis Blues come to town for the first of three meetings between the two clubs. The Flames did not fare well against the Blues last season as they lost three of their four meetings, while only scoring a total of six goals.

The Flames will host the Dallas Stars for the first and only time this season as they hope to get things on track after a less than stellar first ten games of the season. The Stars come into the Saddledome tonight, on the backend of a back-to-back after beating the Oilers 4-1 last night in Edmonton.

The Flames have a woeful Goals Against this year. That stat is directly parable to the quality of defense shown lately. There is a trend emerging that shouldn't be ignored.

Many teams are searching for that one giant player that gives them a physical presence. Is it time for the Flames to seek out their own Goliath?

9 games into the season, and the Calgary Flames remain the NHL’s greatest enigma. Nobody can seem to figure them out – as it always has, inconsistency continues to plague this team, so whats going on?

The Flames welcome the Minnesota Wild to the Dome tonight for the team’s first of five meetings this season. Neither team has got off to a particular good start as both teams are on the outside looking in, on the top eight in the West.

Life without Kiprusoff

That is the story of tonight’s game as the Flames head into Columbus to face the Blue Jackets for the first of three meetings this season. Both teams are looking up at everyone in the West as they sit in 14th (Columbus) and 15th (Calgary) in the conference.

The Flames dominated the Detroit Red Wings tonight beating them 4-1.

However, the story tonight was the loss of Miikka Kiprusoff after the second period as Leland Irving came on in relief.

How severe is the injury? And will the Flames be ok without him? I tend to think they will be...

On an aging team where the changing of the guard seems as inevitable as the changing of gonch, talk has seemed centred not around captain Jarome, but around the young Swiss right-winger, Sven Baertschi.

It seems that young Sven can’t go to the bathroom without some “analyst” critiquing him. Was it the right bathroom? Is that the bathroom that is best for him? Is it too early for him to go to THAT bathroom?
